scription Of the costumes and the names

description furnished us we withhold
comparisons as they were all good and
we fear that we might give the young

young men to specify. Suffice 1t to say
that all were pleased and wish for an.

BY referring to the proceedings
of the Democratic executive COM
mittee it will be seen that mass
meeting of the Democrats of Grant
parish is called for January 2Sth,
ito ratify the nominations made at
Baton Rouge, Jan. 10, 1885, and to
select delegates to represent Grant
parish in the 18th judicial district
and Oath senatorial district con-
ventions." 1t is hoped that there
will be a grand assembling of DEM
ocrats on that day, and we believe
they will be here. In fact, know
ing the interest that is taken in the
Judicial and senatorial nominations,
we have labored to have these nomi-
nations divorced from our parish
convention, in order that they may
be used as sort of spice to add
seasoning and interest to grand
ratification mass meeting of the
people. Such an assembly will
benefit the party and serve to unity
its now distracted elements. We
know that the charge is made that
this separation is done with view
to subserve the interest of indi-
vidual candidates, but we care
nothing for the charge so long as
the people are spurred into coming
together in grand meeting and
harmonizing their differences. The
charge is weak and manifestly un-
founded, as each and every candi-
date has ample time and opportu-
nifty to get his friends out to the
mass meeting. With this plain
and simple statement of a fact that
is patent to any reasoning man, we
will dismiss further discussion of
this phase of the subject, and close
by urging upon all good Democrats
to turn out to the mass meeting,
and may the best man win.
